Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West “spend time talking to God” about their fourth child.

The couple is currently expecting their second baby via surrogate mother after their daughter Chicago was born by the same method in January last year, and sources say they often “pray” for their impending arrival, because they know they’re “very fortunate” to be becoming a family of six.

An insider said: “[They pray] every day, as a couple. It’s very sweet. They pray for all their children, but they really do spend time talking to God about the pregnancy, the surrogate, the rest of the family. It’s their way of acknowledging that this baby is a gift from God, and that they’re very fortunate to have four gifts now.”

The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star and the ‘Heartless’ rapper - who also have daughter North, five, and son Saint, three, together - even get their brood involved in praying for their new sibling.

Speaking to People magazine, the source added: “During nighttime prayers, the children pray for the baby, too.”

The news comes after it was claimed Kim, 38, and Kanye, 41, are “closer” than ever now they have another baby on the way.

An insider said: "Kim and Kanye seem great. They had a really nice trip to Aspen and always enjoy spending time in Miami. They seem very happy and close.

"When they waited for Chicago to arrive, it was the same - having another baby seems to always bring them closer. They are very excited about having another baby this year.”

Whilst a second source said the couple have "different chemistry" when they're expecting a child, which has made them "a lot more romantic" recently.They said: "One thing you've got to know about Kanye and Kim: They've got a different chemistry when a baby is on the way. I can't even explain it, but they are much more into each other when they're expecting. So they're both really happy right now - a lot more romantic, a lot more supportive of each other.

"They were acting like newlyweds last week. They touch each other, kiss each other and say things to each other like, 'You're the best thing that ever happened to me.' It's really sweet to watch them together. When they're not expecting, they're still loving, but nothing like this. Right now, they couldn't be happier."
